Side-splitting sass
JOKES, POKES ‘ N TERRIBLY HAZARDOUS HUMOUR
BECAUSE Mzansi has been plagued by a spate of dramatic events in the last week, Shwashwi decided to lighten up.
So on Wednesday night moi attended the comedy night launch in Rosebank at SET Club.
Let ’ s not forget Klipdrift Gold and Ice watches, who made the dooh possible.
Moi has never laughed so much in moi ’ s life. My ribs are still aching! Really, people need to learn to lighten up!
Once again yummy Carmel Fischer and her rich man were our hosts.
Sorry, I have to mention her because she desperately requested moi ’ s presence.
Does she wanna be Shwashwi ’ s BFF? Carmel, you ’ re on.
I couldn ’ t contain my laughter when I spotted singer Bianca Le Grange.
Her coat matched the wallpaper in the venue!
Was it part of the theme?
Anyways, she bragged to moi about her new Afrikaans album, new man and fab life.
All that ’ s missing is a fab wardrobe. Hahahaha!
OK, let ’ s get to the funny peeps. I mean the ones who actually wanted to be funny.
Was impressed with MC Trevor Gumbi and some of his jokes.
But he reached a point where he got so rude and personal that the crowd started to cringe.
It ’ s not fair to poke fun at people ’ s spears, Trevor, unless you want unruly mobs to march to your house at ungodly hours and demand apologies. Remember, it ’ s not Headline!
Anyways, comedian Celeste Ntuli eased the tension with her hilarious set, talking about big girls and sex issues.
I felt sorry for the white folk who couldn ’ t understand half of what she said ‘ cos most of it was in vernac.
Ah, the joys of being multilingual and black.
Oops, does that make moi a racist?
Kagiso Lediga made up for his sloppy dress code with the most hilarious set ever.
I laughed so hard that my eyes welled up with tears. Almost fell off my chair with laughter. Or did I?
Kagiso should come with a warning label.
I missed parts of Isaac Gampu ’ s act because some randoms who crowded the VIP area were yapping loudly. Talk about lack of class and manners!
But the bits I heard were classic.
Pity I don ’ t remember much.
Next up was “surprise act ” Thapelo Seemise, who took a swipe at homosexuals.
The best part was when he imitated them to perfection. I heard that he also starred in the local movie Taxi Ride. Shwashwi was impressed, so stick with me, hun – I ’ ll make you famous/er.
Whoever made legendary comedian John Vlismas the closing act is a genius. How that man can tell all those jokes with a straight face is beyond me.
I swear half the audience was on the floor halfway through his set, moi included.
For the first time people of all races found The Spear drama amusing.
Yhu, is it against the law to talk about classified goods?
If you are under 16 don ’ t look at this article. Oh, sorry, you already have.
By the time DJ Hudson took control of the decks, I was exhausted from laughter. Couldn ’ t afford to dance or watch people misbehave.
Now that would ’ ve been funny.
